I think he types it up in Finnish or Swedish or something, and then just uses Google translate on the whole paragraph

Plot twist: Sir Avgard is a bot in Pierce's desktop computer (and that's Pierce on the left)Rantanen at Center and no Mackinnon in the lineup?
Live look at Sir Avgard right now:

I wonder if Sir Avgard is as famous on other teams’s boards as he is on ours. I figured he was just some random user, or AI, that just popped over to peoples boards to enlighten them, but now I realize maybe the “Av” insinuates he’s an avalanche fan?
The world may never know.

The thing is though, guys, Avgard is a hockeyprofessor so who the f*** do we think we are to disagree with a scholar of hockey?

I think they essentially switched it a couple seasons ago when EJ got injured. He missed so much time that Mikko was basically the full time guy, and they probably didn't want to take it away from him.
Might even have been EJ's idea. He doesn't need a letter to be a leader on this team. I think Bednar always prefers his star players to wear the letters too.
Personally I think they should be rotating it, but I don't think they are.

Randomly stumbled upon that MacDermid had more goals this year then our old friend Donskoi. Poor guy must not be having a good time.
Lol, NAK outplayed Jost every single game this season and is still demoted on the fourth line.

Next article from the The Athletic, "Landeskog Made Taylor Hall Play Scared for Entire Game."

I don't have subscription but that article seemed to have a huge B's slant.

Play stupid games win stupid prizes Taylor. Like what did you expect??
I remember in both 12-13 and 16-17 there were times where, even when the team was playing well, they would just find ways to lose every night. This run is the exact opposite. Right now the team has a response for everything their opponents are throwing at them. I know that a big part of that is just that the puck is bouncing our way, and we're not taking those pinball goals at backbreaking times. But this team sure is showing off all of the tools in the toolbox. Never hurts to have lots of paths to victory.

Back then the Avs couldn't get the puck out of the zone. It was a constant problem.

If Cale gets a 3pts night against Buffalo he will be ppg for his career.

Amazing what effect a contract year can have on some guys. Part of me is irritated by that.
I also feel like maybe a small part of this is him trying to make up for last post season's dipshittery. He seems to be doing a lot less whining to the refs/distracting himself from still playing. It will be interesting to see what the team that signs him gets from him.
I actually notice this as well, obviously it's a business and it's understandable that a decent portion of his play this year is contract year behavior. But he does seem to have matured, he's played significantly less selfish, he plays like a leader, and he's contributing on both sides of the ice. If you told me that this is the Kadri we'd get for the next 4-5 years I'd want Joe to resign him, even though we all know it wont be.
